IN RE MICHELLE BARKER, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

On March 3, 2006, relator Michelle Barker filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus in this Court, claiming her children were wrongfully taken from her by the Texas Department of Protective and Regulatory Services and requesting we order the children returned.  Because the relief sought by relator does not fall within this Court=s power to issue a writ of habeas corpus,^[1] we dismiss relator=s petition for lack of jurisdiction.  

PER CURIAM

Petition Dismissed for Lack of Jurisdiction and Memorandum Opinion filed March 8, 2006.

Panel consists of Justices Anderson, Edelman, and Frost
